It seems to be something in the pipeline from after effects, as I downgraded ME and it still didn't work.  I'd guess it's a path error....

I have talked with Adobe Support, they think there is a bug in Media Encoder last version (they tested in Windows and Mac with mxf files I have been working with)

That's the camera codec from a Sony FS5 in UHD 100 mbs.

 

The current output codec is Prores 422 HQ

@TalonProductions Thanks for your reply. Just want to understand whether your input Codec is H264 in mxf or it is output (exported) file's codec? If it is output codec then what was the input codec?
